Job 27:20 in context

  1. 18He builds his house as the moth,
    as a booth which the watchman makes.
  2. 19He lies down rich, but he will not do so again.
    He opens his eyes, and he is not.
  3. 20Terrors overtake him like waters.
    A storm steals him away in the night.
  4. 21The east wind carries him away, and he departs.
    It sweeps him out of his place.
  5. 22For it hurls at him, and does not spare,
    as he flees away from his hand.
